Trump right now is trailing Hitlary by about 4% on the reliable polls, which excludes MSNBC.Well, they've increased his support to about one-third of one party.Who knows what Trump's recent comments about Muslims will do to his campaign. He's said so many inflammatory things at this point, and been forgiven for them, that the damage caused is impossible to predict.
Many of his "inflammatory" remarks reflect what many Americans are thinking, and thus far have increased his lead.
I believe were he not in the race, his GOP opponents would be agreeing with him. Since the establishment is trying to take him out, they give lip service to opposition.
Yes, that's a significant amount of people, but he's trailing Hillary by a larger number than the other GOP candidates, at least last time I checked.

2016 Trump vs. Clinton Presidential Election Polls - Election Projection
And this is way before the general election which gives Clinton more time to develop legal problems with her FBI investigations still ongoing and for Trump to bring his media attacks to bear. Trumps track record so far is that when you get in his sights you start to sink in the polls, and there is a lot of good reason for that.
I wouldnt worry about Trump beating Clinton in 2016. He aint no Mitt.
HRC still leads in the polls after years of efforts by the right wing to assassinate her character. One might think the right wing would tire of that tactic, yet it seems ingrained in their strategy seeking power, since they still denigrate FDR and Bill Clinton as well as the Kennedy's, Carter and Obama.
I wonder why the Republicans and the extreme element which has set their course, wants to lead America when they hate the majority of Americans?
Today those seeking the nomination, at least those leading in the polls, continue the hate and fear mongering of all Muslims, currently focused on Islam. One must wonder if one day they control the WH, The Congress and the USSC, if their next focus of hate and fear will be on Democrats, liberals, progressives, uppity women and minorities, University Professors, government workers, union workers, school teachers, the aged, children, the working poor and middle class.
(of course they already are)
Your profound fear of the right, forces you to vote for a lying tool of the 1%, merely because she is a D. That says much about you.
Fear? I don't buy into the hate and fear mongering which mostly comes from the right. I don't need to carry my gun when I go to the grocery store, or take out the trash in the dark of night.
I will support Sect. Clinton, not out of fear and not because I support the 1% (I'd support Sen. Sanders if I thought he could survive right wing character (or worse) assassination efforts), I will do so as she is the most experienced of anyone running for the nomination in either party, as she is focused on the Realpolitik (unlike anyone of the R's in the clown car) and because she is focused on real issues, not the wedge issues we've seen debated for the past two decades.
